Challenger 2 MBT - Technical data and Discussion (Part 1)

Looks like the thickness of the ammunition stowage bin walls went up to 25mm which is great.

Spall liners to some, massive armour reduction to some, bit of a mixed bag.

Which photos were used to show the spall liners?

What ones got an armour reduction

funnly enough on the challenger 3 it still has only 5mm for the bins XD

And the OES also

This is what happens when you rush stuff out. 😞

Just the 3, couldn’t look at the rest since work

Apparently they have made the mobility even worse

This update is a fucking mess

Chally 3 loses 100 on its turret

oes didnt get its armor chnaged on the bins

And now the mobility is worse

What a shit show of an update

For the ch2?

Challenger 3 Is also missing its armour around the ready rack

Yup all challengers now are even less mobile supposedly. @Smin1080p how does this happen?

Great, another thing to report

is the spall liner in the hull even finished just seems like its only on part of the UFP

I noticed that too, i don’t have a source so cant say

Who would have thought gaijin giving challenger 2 incorrect track locking system to turning would have made it worse. That was never the problem the problem was there awful transmission implementation

hope the armour for the challenger 3s turret gets fixed ASAP

Will make a report in like 3h

Knowing them dont hold your breath

It takes them ages to even get basic things done

I think it’s just bloody-minded pettiness by this point. Meanwhile, in Gaijin HQ (totally NOT in Russia you understand…)

‘Igor! Those anglo-saxons are bug reporting the blyat out of the Challenger 2! What do they mean broken? It’s supposed to be a pile of pizdec Da?’

Hiccups and puts down bottle of anti-freeze.

‘Ha! Don’t worry Brutik! I’ll show them who’s boss! We’ll whack a few 100mm of armour off here…lemme check my references…some here… and hell, let’s mess with that bit also.’

‘You sure Potato Farmer Monthly is a valid source Igor?’

‘Sure it is… I mean have you SEEN Miss July this issue. If she says Challenger wasn’t any good then it isn’t good!’

‘But that was about a combine harvester…’

Sounds of empty bottles being thrown.
